Another option would be try shopping at Target. From what I've seen, their prices are close to that of Walmart and they have a much friendlier policy towards customer service.

I think you have a good idea with the trade off over to Target but these MegaStores have the financial strength to care for those who need this service. I don't use a handicapped parking spot or electric cart unless absolutely necessary, so once in awhile. I never waited one minute for a cart at Home Depot, Lowes, or Publix. Why Sam's and Walmart with the problem for me and the OP. The OP made the trip to the store which is not easy when you are hurting and couldn't completed the mission....not good.
